The four stages of receiving a postcard usually goes something like this… Receive postcard, pretend to read postcard, place on desk, use postcard as a coaster. Thankfully, PostCups actually encourage this.

The postcards, created by designers Ink Julep and Jenn Perng, contain illustrations that are incomplete. It is only when the postcard recipient places their coffee on it and creates a coffee ring, that the illustration is complete. Whether you actually read the other side or not.

Vera Wong is a talented illustrator with an obsession for pop-culture and potassium. Using a banana as her canvas, Wong transforms the fruit into various pop culture characters.

While paint and ink begin to give the banana some personality, the art really comes to life with the addition of paper and other props. Wong then peels open and eats every character, so there’s no food waste. Check out more below.
